Nagpositibo sa COVID-19 ang broadcast journalist na si Karen Davila at ang kanyang pamilya.
Ito ang inanunsiyo ng TV Patrol host sa kanyang Instagram ngayong Biyernes, January 7, 2022.
Ito raw ang dahilan kaya hindi siya napanood sa primetime news program ng Kapamilya Channel.
Ayon kay Karen, mabuti na lang at bakunado na silang lahat at dalawa sa kanila ay may booster shots na kaya "mild" lamang ang mga sintomas nila.
Kagagaling lamang ng pamilya ni Karen sa Boracay kung saan sinalubong nila ang Bagong Taon.
Dagdag ni Karen, “First Work Week of 2022. WFH for #ANCHeadstart. Many of you have asked why I wasn’t on TVPatrol for our free TV @a2zchannel11 launch.
“Five days ago, our family tested POSITIVE for COVID19. Our 14 yr old son Lucas first tested positive on antigen and we immediately took an RT PCR test as a family.
“Praise God our symptoms are MILD and I believe that is because we have all been vaccinated & 2 have us have had booster shots.
“Lucas completed his vaccinations last October. David & I had booster shots last Dec 18. My husband DJ is fully vaccinated & has yet to take his booster shots.
“Our kids had fever, a scratchy throat, coughing. I experienced fatigue & a lump in my throat. Thank God we are all recovering very well! Thank you @lifecoreph for your effective protocol.”
Nagpasalamat naman ang news anchor na kahit may COVID-19 siya at nasa bahay lamang, patuloy pa rin siyang napapanood sa kanyang show sa ABS-CBN News Channel (ANC) na Headstart.
Kasunod nito, hinikayat din ni Karem ang lahat na magpabakuna na dahil malaki ang maitutulong nito upang hindi maospital sakaling mahawaan ng virus.
Saad niya, “I am extremely grateful that while I was taking care of the kids day & night, I was still able to do #ANCHeadstart in the mornings. I have learned to treasure this quiet time at home for prayer, healing & resting. Praise God for being with us every step of the way. We love you Lord [praying hands emoji]
"GUYS. The vaccines work! We are living proof. Get your shots.
"Get your boosters NOW. Do this out of love for yourself & your family this 2022.”
